So I thought binging on FNL with Breaking Bad was perfect... until we finished FNL and started House of Cards. Holy crap is that show good.

Kate Mara got nekkid last night. Only downside is that the polish of HoC makes BB look rough around the edges. but maybe in a good way.

Anyway, struggling to think of what would make an even more perfect combo of bingewatching next summer.

The Wire and...?

- Yes indeed. SELF THREAD JACK: has anyone read the novels or the BBC miniseries? -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 17, 11:25 6
  - Yes - the first miniseries was great, the second just as good, the third mediocre. I didn't enjoy the book nearly as much and wouldn't bother with it. -- nm - Roger More Sep 17, 11:40 2
    - Awesome, thank you. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 17, 11:48

  - ha! -- nm - Remlik Sep 17, 11:15
"combo" .. "bingewatching" ... does not compute. - Beryllium Sep 17, 11:05
